MTL - Tattoo Awakening: All Kinds of Divine Beasts Carved on My Back-Chapter 21 Kill the wolf
Zeng Rong looked at the document in his hand with a solemn expression, and the previous joy was gone.
He knew very well that if Xu Mo hadn't taken the initiative today, he would have killed the Red Fire Ant Queen on the spot.
With the gold-level strength of the Red Fire Ant Queen, Zeng Rong was not absolutely sure that he would kill it when there was a colony of Red Fire Ants in person!
After all, Zeng Rong himself only had five-star gold strength, a gold-level red fire ant queen, and a large group of silver high-level red fire ants.
The most likely possibility is that as soon as Zeng Rong jumped off the city wall, he was surrounded by ants and torn apart!
After reading Wang Lei's documents, Zeng Rong felt even worse, and then circulated the documents downwards.
After everyone read the document, their expressions became very ugly.
As stated in the document, in recent times, not only the Yanjing Fortress, but also the situation like today’s Yanjing Fortress has occurred in various places. This is definitely not a good sign!
After Xu Mo read the documents, he understood everyone's concerns.
Monsters are different from humans. Although they have mutated due to the original Nine Stars Lianzhu, they have become what they are today.
But in fact, they are the existence at the top of the pyramid of the real food chain in this world!
Humans only relied on wisdom and made various tools and weapons to drive wild beasts out of human habitats.
But things are different now. With the frequent appearance of Nine Stars, beasts turn into monsters, and the monsters become stronger and stronger.
Ordinary human tools and weapons pose no threat to monsters at all!
Monsters have the power to threaten humans at any time, so they will inevitably attack humans.
This is not only due to the territorial awareness of the animals themselves, but also a manifestation of the law of the jungle.
In the eyes of animals, humans are actually the source of food. The conflict between the two parties cannot be reconciled!
The previous beast tide was actually a manifestation of the desire for food. After the emergence of high-level monsters that produce intelligence, the monsters' attack methods will become even more difficult to guard against!
"Our current situation is very bad. There are very likely high-level monsters outside the city, and our defense line may be breached at any time!"
Zeng Rong's words caused silence in the conference room.
Gold-level monsters are already difficult to deal with, but now a platinum-level monster appears, which is very likely to exist. This puts great pressure on the entire city guard!
"Hasn't there been platinum monsters attacking the city before?" Xu Mo curiously broke the silence at this time.
"Xu Mo, you just arrived and don't know much about the situation outside the city." Zeng Rong looked at Xu Mo and explained.
"High-level monsters, especially platinum-level monsters, rarely appear near human fortresses."
"The reason is that their living environment is actually worse than we imagined, especially their more cruel promotion requirements!"
"For ordinary monsters, if they want to advance from bronze to one-star platinum, the process they go through is not only cruel, but also takes a long time."
"It is precisely because the promotion conditions they have experienced are more cruel than ours, so at the same level, our human successors cannot be the opponents of monsters."
"Just like the Red Fire Ant Queen you encountered today, to be honest, if it were a head-to-head confrontation, I would only be 30% sure of being able to kill it, and the most likely outcome would be that it kills me!"
When Zeng Rong said this, the atmosphere in the conference room became more solemn.
Everyone knows that what Zeng Rong said is true. Because of this, the high-level monster outside the city will always be like a shadow, lingering in everyone's heart!
Xu Mo also fell silent. He heard from Zeng Rong's words that the strength of a platinum-level monster might be about the same as that of a human platinum warrior.
But that's only theoretical. In reality, even a diamond-level human might not be able to win easily!
Thinking of this, Xu Mo could finally understand why Zeng Rong and the others had said before that if there was a high-level monster outside the city, they must immediately report it to their superiors and ask them to send an adjudicator to deal with it.
After all, only adjudicators who are generally at level 4 can be confident of killing high-level monsters outside the city!
After the meeting, everyone went back to their homes.
Xu Mo was assigned a new residence.
Because of the successive waves of beasts, Zeng Rong was worried that there would be another wave of beasts.
So Xu Mo was placed in a safe house closest to the city wall.
The safe house is very hidden, and the building materials are more advanced than the one Xu Mo lived in before. The most important thing is that it has sound insulation effect, which makes it easier for Xu Mo to practice in the room.
There is less than a mile from the safe house to the city wall, so if something happens to the city wall, Xu Mo can rush to the scene as soon as possible.
Xu Mo had no objection to Zeng Rong's arrangement.
In times of crisis, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
In today's meeting, Xu Mo gained a new understanding of the monsters in this world.
The platinum monster made everyone in the Admiral's Mansion feel like they were facing a formidable enemy, and they had no choice but to turn to the Adjudicator to solve it.
But what if there's more than just platinum monsters outside the city?
Could it be that we want to alert the Twelve Generals, a powerful weapon of the country, to come?
Humans are still too weak in front of monsters~www.novelbuddy.com~!
You must improve your strength as soon as possible, otherwise if a high-level monster really attacks the city, without the protection of strong men like the Judge and Twelve Generals around you, wouldn't you be incapable of protecting yourself?
Xu Mo would never allow such a situation to happen to him!
But not everyone can think like Xu Mo.
The next day, when Xu Mo was on routine inspection of the city wall, he often heard all kinds of comments.
Basically, they are worried about the existence of high-level monsters outside the city.
Soldiers are generally pessimistic about the coming battle.
After all, before the Arbitrator arrives, even if there are two gold-level inheritors, Xu Mo and Zeng Rong, in the City Guards Mansion, they cannot bring enough security to everyone!
Before Xu Mo's inspection was over, soldiers hurried over to invite him to the meeting room of the city guard.
When Xu Mo arrived, the conference room was already full of people.
Zeng Rong waited until everyone gathered and announced something with a solemn expression.
"I just received news from the alliance that most of the judges have been sent to various places to deal with the sudden outbreak of beasts, so we are afraid..."
Hearing Zeng Rong's words, everyone present changed their expressions.
"Admiral, is the alliance planning to abandon Yanjing Fortress?"
"No." Zeng Rong shook his head and said: "There is no suitable judge who can be sent here. The only one who can be sent now is Mr. Lang Slayer!"
"Ah?" When they heard the name 'Lang Mie' from Zeng Rong's mouth, everyone's expressions changed, as if they heard something scarier than a monster.
This couldn't help but make Xu Mo particularly curious.
How come everyone is even more nervous when an adjudicator can be sent here?
